Anbesol Liquid Information

  • When you need fast relief from oral pain caused by ulcers or dentures, Anbesol Liquid is a very effective treatment that is fast acting and helps to prevent the onset of infection. The liquid can also be used on children who are suffering from teething pain.

    The combination of ingredients means that you can benefit from fast-acting pain relief (from the anaesthetic effects of lidocaine) as well as protection against infection (from the antiseptic effects of chlorocresol and cetylpyridinium) when you use this liquid.

    Anbesol liquid is very easy to use, as you simply apply it directly to the affected areas in the mouth. You should leave at least a three-hour break between applications.
